Before Someone Gets Hurt Page #4

Synopsis: Tim and his team are the rising stars of the ghost hunting game. One thing they all like better than a good haunt is a great prank. When the team arrives at a new investigation, they cannot figure if the occurrences are part of some elaborate master prank or if the house is actually haunted. Unfortunately, they don't find the answer until it is far too late.

Hey, cut the crap.

Seriously! Enough!

We have a show to do.

Billy.

Guys, where's Billy?

He went outside.

No, baby, just let him cool off.

He'll be okay. Really.

Okay. We have a job to do,

so no more pranks.

Agreed?

Um...

oh, I have movement.

For real this time?

- No more games.

- No games.

Front bedroom, second floor.

[loud crash]

- What was that?

- That felt like an earthquake.

It's probably just

the radiator going on.

Clanking ducts,

or whatever.

[camera beeping]

[Tim]

You picking up that noise?

[Gary on walkie-talkie]

Oh, yeah.

- [Tim] From the bedroom?

- [Gary] Yup.

[shifting and thumping]

There's more movement.

Where?

Looks like it's right

in front of you.

[scraping and thumping]

[Tim] Everybody's

accounted for, right?

That's not any of us.

[Tim]

And it's definitely not Billy?

He's not in the house.

Wait, do you hear that?

It's getting louder.

Yeah, there's

definitely something

moving around in there.

Guys, whatever it is,

it's coming from

right on the other side

of that door.

Okay, we've ruled out

one of the crew members

moving around

inside this room.

So, it's time

to take a look.

[scraping and thumping

continuous]

[Tim]

There's nothing here, Gary.

Gary, check again for Billy.

Everybody look for Billy.

Billy?

- Billy?

- [Stefan] Billy!

Billy!

I'm not finding him

in the house.

- Billy?

- Billy!

Billy!

[typing]

- Gary...

- What?

Gary, Gary, take a look at this.

Jesus.

- [Stefan] Billy!

- Stefan, look at this.

[Stefan]

What?

[screams]

[Lisa sobs]

Billy, really?

Alison, what the f***

are you doing?

You shouldn't be helping him.

Alison?

[breathing heavily]

Take her down.

What's going on?

I heard a scream.

- [jiggles doorknob]

- F*** the door. F***!

Call 911.

I'm trying. It's dead.

My phone is dead.

Hey, help us!

[mouthing]

What the f***?

I'm sorry.

Do you have service?

- No.

- Okay, come on, we got to go.

- We can't just leave her.

- It's not safe. We got to go.

We'll come back for her.

Come on.

- [knocking on window]

- Help us!

Help us!

[Stacy]

No, we've got to stay together.

[Tim] Are we going

to the basement or not?

- [Stacy] Yes.

- [Gary] No. No.

[Tim] No, someone needs to man

video village and watch our backs.

Okay? So you three come

with me to the basement,

and you go with Gary and Lisa

to video village, okay?

We're going to find a way

out of here, guys. Stay close.

[camera chimes]

Okay, uh, you guys go in there,

you guys come with me.

We're going to find a way

out of here. Stay close.

[breathing heavily]

- [Stacy] All right.

- [Tim] Stay back.

Jamie, what the hell

are you doing?

Put that away.

Jamie, put that away,

and help us.

What are you doing?

[beeping]

Tim?

Jamie, Jamie!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

We got to get him

out of here.

Jamie, come on.

- Get him out of here.

- Come on, come on.

Come on.

[Stacy]

Tim, I can't, he's too hurt.

Okay, put him down,

put him down.

You got it, okay?

[Stacy]

Guys, we need your help.

The lights kept going

on and off. What happened?

What the hell

happened to him?

Bumped into the wall.

He bumped into a wall?

- How many times?

- Tim, how can you not believe

there's something paranormal

going on in this house

after everything you've seen

with your own eyes?

What I've seen with my own eyes,

is Alison nailed to the wall,

and Jamie tripping in a dark

basement and bumping his head.

There's nothing paranormal

happening here.

Someone killed Alison,

and I'm going to find out who.

Or, or, we could let

the police figure that out,

and we could figure out a way

to get out of here.

How come we can't open

any doors or smash any windows?

What's your logical

explanation for that?

Are there any symbols

on her wrists?

What?

Please, someone

go check to see

if Alison had any symbols

on her wrist.

- [Stefan] And film it.

- It's Alison.

It's good TV.

It's not like she's coming back

to life anytime soon.

Fine, give me this.

[camera whirs]

What is that?

[Tim]

I don't know.

Hey, what do you guys see?

[Gary] Same as the ones

in the Murphy house.

There's nothing,

but I'll keep looking.

[Stacy] Wait, we have Internet?

No. I'm checking our

internal database.

We still don't have power.

I tracked the bogus

info on Wiki,

and saw that his page

was updated yesterday.

So who updated it?

It said his wife.

- Is she still alive?

- No.

That would mean

she's a hundred years old.

No, she's... she's dead.

Mrs. Koenig died shortly

after he did, in 1935.

How did she die?

She was crucified.

Yeah.

- [device beeping rapidly]

- Uh...

Gary, what is that?

I don't know, I don't know.

Uh, movement,

but no corporeal bodies.

The EMF's trampolining on mean,

the laser could've been tripped.

It's like an army

is moving toward...

[beeping stops]

[shrieks]

Lisa!

Lisa!

- Oh, my God.

- Lisa?

What the f***?

[grunts]

F***!

[breathing heavily]

No, no. No number.

[computer beeps]

Um, I got movement

again upstairs.

Front bedroom.

[Stefan]

They can't get you in here.

[Tim]

Stacy, stay down here.

[Stacy]

No, that's not going to happen.

- [Tim] Stacy!

- [device beeps]

- Where's Billy?

- [Jamie] He's in the study.

[Tim]

What the f*** is he doing?

[Gary on walkie-talkie] I got movement

in the back bedroom now, too.

[door slams]

- [Tim] Gary, did you get that?

- [Gary] What was that?

[Tim]

The door slammed shut.

You didn't see

anything on video?

- Negative.

- [Gary] Wait. I got something.

Where?

I think it's coming from right

in front of you.

[Stacy]

There's nothing here.

[Tim]

Maybe an echo? False reading?

[Gary]

Dude, I'm telling you,

there's something right there

in front of you.

It's just inside the door.

- [thumping]

- [Tim] Yeah, we can hear it.

We're going in.

[Stacy]

Three, two, one.

[Tim]

Guys, there's nothing here.

[Gary]

No, I know, um...

the activity is gone.

It's just...

it's just gone.

Guys, there's nothing here.

F***.

[sighs]

Hey.

[sighs]

They're numbers.

The symbols on their wrists,

they're numbers.

It's biblical Hebrew.

It looks similar to Arabic

to the untrained eye.

You read right to left.

They're Hebrew numbers.

Tim! Stacy!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

[voices whisper indistinctly]

[banging on door]

- [Stefan gasps]

- Is that Stefan?

Is anybody going

to say anything?

Dear God in heaven...

please take these sweet souls,

and please show mercy

and forgiveness

to the troubled souls

that took them from us.

Excuse me?

Troubled souls?

Our friends, my friend Lisa

was murdered.

Nailed to a wall

with f***ing railroad spikes.

We're not dealing

with troubled souls.

We're dealing with

sick f***ing murderers.

Okay, come on,

he was just trying to...

Trying to what? He's been acting

crazy since we got here.

Really?

I think I've been as serene

as you've ever seen me,

brother Jamie.

[scoffs]

Dare I say even

turned over a new leaf.
